nissar · #1 (**permalink**) 08-11-2006

Hi,

I need to execute a URL through crontab. Please could you help me to.

I need something like

15 0 * * * http://www.mysite.com/index.php.

Is it possible.

If not, how can I execute a script from another server..

Any help will be appritiatable.

Many thanks,
Nissar.P.K

well, I think the better way you can do that is to create a small script that executes that url. And then in the crontab you execute the script at the time you want.
